[Soloing PoE, Difficulty Settings and Build Ideas]

My experience thus far:

 

Progression: Heritage Hill

 

Level 7 Pale Elf Rogue

Max Might

Max Dex

 

8 Stealth

5 Mechanics

 

I have not had many problems outside of enemies who summon additionals, i.e. Banshee.  I do not believe I will get further as a lot of encounters begin with unavoidable combat due to dialogue.  My damage has seemed to plateau as weapons are not dealing damage that scales with level.  I have used the same dagger for four levels.  The best way I can forsee myself progressing is using an arbalest/crossbow combo to sneak, do massive damage, and use Shadowing Beyond to escape.

 

I really, really, want to continue soloing but I have dumped hours for certain encounters and do not believe this game will be fulfilling if I cannot smash through enemies like dragons.

 

It was a fun journey.

WARNING: IF YOU DO THIS YOU MAY NOT BE ELIGIBLE TO RECEIVE ACHIEVEMENTS

 

Note: Cheats will be disabled when you load/reload a save.

 

 

Temporary Fix:

 

Open Pillars of Eternity

Hit ~ Key to open console

Type "iroll20s" to enable cheats

 

The two commands you can copy/paste are:

 

AreaTransition AR_0707_Raedrics_Hold_Ext North1

AreaTransition AR_0708_Raedrics_Hold_Int_01 North1

 

The first command gets you outside of the keep.  I suggest doing this first and hard saving.  This will allow you to have a clear file outside.  (My issue was I only had a save two hours prior and the bugged autosave in the Seige area).

 

The second command is the front door of the keep.  There will be a lot of enemies, but it leads to Raedric which thus allows you to complete the quest.

 

I sided against Raedric and killed him.  Upon killing him I was able to use the front door, however I am unable to zone into any other area.  Just take the quest complete and boogie.

Can we get a dev in here to give us an ETA on if this can get fixed?  I would like to enjoy this game but I feel that it's going to be impossible passing this area if it continues to black screen.

[Raedric's Hold game crash]

I am having the same issue.  Don't feel the need to post my log because it's the same exact issue.  Top of the hold, try to zone in, loading screen, then a black screen that plays effects and it crashes.

 

All I wanted to do was get loot .
